More About Vigil
One of the top 10 JRPGs available on iOS! - TouchArcade, 2018
Vigil RPG is an 8-bit-style premium RPG where every battle involves interesting decision-making! Take on the role of a solo hero on a quest to discover the hidden cause behind the sudden appearance of marauding bands of goblins and monsters!
NEW FOR 2019: VIGIL RPG SPECIAL 5TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION - Huge free update!
• Now a Universal app! Play on your iPad, iPad Mini, or iPad Pro in full resolution!
• Beautiful high resolution support for all iPhone sizes, from iPhone SE to the iPhone 11 Pro Max!
• Bo the Bartender has tons of new advice, commentary, and humor! Tap him at the tavern for more tips!
• Added a new early-game boss! What manner of creature awaits you at the Northern Hills farmstead?
• Added local high scores for quests! Challenge your best times from prior playthroughs!
• Redesigned several enemies, making Vigil RPG’s trademark interesting non-boss battles even more interesting!
• Polished and enhanced graphics and sounds! Delight your senses with primitive 8-bit-era media!
• Reworked the hero’s ultimate “Finisher!” ability to be even more devastating!
• Added new unique music for many bosses and dungeon areas!
Vigil RPG features that you may come to wish that every game had:
• Created by a one-person development team with a design goal of maximum FUN -- not maximum monetization! Vigil RPG has no IAPs, ads, stamina timers, or even "leave us a review!" nags. If it's not fun, it didn't make the cut.
• Meaningful decision-making in every combat -- even vs. non-boss enemies! Every enemy has unique attack patterns and "tells" for a clever player to overcome. Healing is hard to come by outside of town, so efficient gameplay is important and rewarding.
• Fast turn-based combat! Select an action and launch each combat round in a single tap -- no menus to navigate through. Each round takes about a second to play out. Zip through battles quickly against easy enemies, and take time to consider your strategy vs. tougher foes!
• No annoying tropes common to console-port RPGs! No imprecise on-screen D-pad; just tap your destination to move. No save points, or manual saving; your progress is continually auto-saved, even mid-battle.
